I am using the Allegro library -- One of the functions was calling
findfirst which was generating the ENOENT.  I modified the routines to
call _dos_findfirst instead which has corrected that problem.

The problem that I am currently experiencing is using the fopen command
as follows:

---- code ----
FILE *fp;

fp = fopen("TEMP.TMP", "r");
if (!fp) {
  printf("We have a problem.");
  exit(1);
}

---- end -----

When I run this code from a dos window (under Windows 98) or from a
Windows 98 boot disk, it works fine.  When I run it from my FreeDOS
boot disk, I receive the error message.
